"we are what we think"

--We are what we think
All that we are arises with our
thought
With our thoughts we make the
world.
Speak and act with an impure mind
And trouble will follow you
As the wheel follows the ox that
draws the cart.


We are what we think
All that we are arises with our
thought
With our thoughts we make the
world.
Speak or act with a pure mind
And happiness will follow you
As your shadow, unshakable.
